you take care and you'll soon be mended. hahaha i remember the stockings but its for health reasons not pleasure  i also had the needle in spine to block pain of operation but it was weird being able to hear the electric saw when they sawed off the hip ball and the knocking of the hammer when they drove the joint into my leg bone  take care, keep doing the exercises to build up your leg muscles  I am definitely going to have to be bad before I let them do that, either they knock me out or I will have to suffer. I am far too squeamish  |

mum had her shoulder done not long back and its turned out fine and she,s in her seventy,s she fell and shattered hers and we all thought they wouldnt be able to do much for her at her age but it suprised us when they replaced the complete shoulder joint ,i reckon she,s got 40% more use than she,s had for years.. |

I have pretty good movement,but if i use a saw or file or paint roller shortly afterwards I'm in agony, And of course I'm nearly 60 and they tell me I'm to young to have it done.  |

It never bothers me if they say I need something doing but I am just too squeamish to be concious. I always compare body to vehicles, if something is knackered you would get it swapped out so why worry about an odd leg, or shoulder, or hip etc. What I find really amazing is the recovery times now compared to what they were. When I lost my leg in 78 they brought me back from IOM to the Devonshire hospital in Buxton. At the time that was renowned as being one of the best places for hip replacements (as well as head injuries but not replacement heads Trev  ) People were coming in and going while I was stuck in there, with knees they attacked the patient the day after trying to get movement but they were in hospital for a good 2 weeks. With hip I dont think anyone was out in under 3 weeks and then they had a job to move. I know the technology and materials will have improved as well but its the recovery time difference that amazes me You running yet Zac? |
